List of Ingredients



• 6 bacon strips, diced
  
• 1 c. chopped onion
  
• 1 can (16 oz.) sauerkraut, drained
  
• 1/2 lb. fully cooked smoked kielbasa or Polish sausage, coarsely chopped
  
• 2 T. brown sugar
  
• 1/2 t. garlic salt
  
• 1/4 t. caraway seeds
  
• 1/8 t. pepper
  
• 1 package (16 oz.) hot roll mix
  
• 2 eggs
  
• 1 c. warm water (120 to 130 degrees)
  
• 2 T. butter or margarine, softened
  
• Poppy seeds
  






Instructions



1. In a skillet, cook bacon until crisp; remove to paper towels. Reserve 2 T. drippings. Saute onion in drippings until tender. Stir in sauerkraut, sausage, brown sugar, garlic salt, caraway and pepper. Cook and stir for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat; add bacon. Set aside to cool.
   
2. In a bowl, combine contents of hot roll mix. Stir in one egg, water and butter to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Cover dough with a large bowl; let stand for 5 minutes. Divide dough into 16 pieces. On a floured surface, roll out each piece into a 4-inch circle. Top each with 1/4 c. filling. Fold dough around filling, forming a ball; pinch edges to seal. Place seam side down on greased baking sheets. Cover loosely with plastic wrap that has been coated with non-stick cooking spray. Let rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.
   
3. Beat remaining egg; brush over bundles. Sprinkle with poppy seeds.
   
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 16-17 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
